Dennis, Agree with the 30 micron and 10 micron filter choices. When I worked for Verizon, we found those numbers worked best. The lower 2 micron just causes flow issues and nuisance shutdown. I think Nigel Calder recommends 30 and 10 microns.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I thought the Racor turbine type water separater required that it be first in line to work well ( making it the primary) and the second filter the fuel passes through is called the secondary filter. Do I have that backward?

Based on that, I have switched from 10 to 30 micron elements in my Racor 500MA. However, I have not been able to find that guidance anywhere on the Racor site. Dennis C.
